What we fit in Accrington

Inside release. Every door can be opened from inside without a key, even if locked from outside.
Tight seals. Compressible gaskets pressed against the frame as the door closes.
Thick insulation. Insulation thickness is chosen for your operating temperature, with heavier leaves for freezers.
Heated frames. Heater cables in freezer door frames stop ice welding the seals shut.
Hygienic finishes. Smooth, cleanable finishes chosen to meet your hygiene and audit standards.

Jobs we can carry out

Adding a heated pressure relief valve to a freezer room where suction makes the door hard to open once it closes.
Protecting new cold store door frames with steel buffers and bollards on a busy forklift route.
Replacing an iced-up sliding freezer door with a new insulated door, heated frame and heated threshold.

Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Accrington?

In England, two sets of duties meet at a powered door. The installer who supplies or motorises it must hand over a door that meets the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008, tested against BS EN 12453 and documented. The business in control of the premises must then maintain it: regulation 5 of the Workplace Regulations 1992 covers maintenance, and regulation 18 requires upward-opening doors to have a device that stops them falling back and powered doors to have features that prevent trapping.

How the work is organised

Most installations in Accrington can be phased so part of the site keeps working. We agree access routes, exclusion zones and any temporary security with you before the team arrives, and can work early mornings, evenings or weekends where the business needs it.

Questions from businesses in Accrington

Do you supply cold store doors for food businesses in Lancashire?

Yes. We supply and fit cold store doors with hygienic finishes for food producers, processors, distributors and commercial kitchens across Lancashire, and we talk through your hygiene, cleaning and audit requirements at the survey before recommending a finish.

Why is our cold room door in Accrington hard to open after it closes?

Usually negative pressure: air inside cools and contracts once the door seals. A correctly sized pressure relief valve, heated on freezers, solves this. We check for one on survey and can fit it with a new door.

What safety release do cold store doors in Accrington need?

Every cold store door should open from inside without a key or tool, even when locked from outside. We fit a clearly marked inside release and can add an alarm button connected to a monitored panel.
